ABOUT US

Oklahoma Genetics, Inc. is a nonprofit 501(c) (5) corporation that assembles in an organized manner as a group of interested and capable seed enterprises to promote stewardship and publicize and market the use of improved genetics, traits, and benefits of quality Pedigreed seed and vegetatively propagated materials, but also promotes educational programs and scientific research for the benefit of crop producers/markets, and plant breeding programs to meet current and future consumer demands. The formation of the corporation was necessary to market the new protected BASF Clearfield Technology.

OGI is made up of a group of dedicated Oklahoma Pedigreed seed producers and processors. The founders of OGI became aware of the need to form such a corporation to make BASF Clearfield Technology in wheat available for farmers in the State of Oklahoma.
